Comments

You’ve got to give Missouri credit. A few weeks ago Missouri’s season looked like it would end up as a dumpster fire. However, Mizzou has pulled off a couple of late-season league wins and will now be bowling. All that said, I don’t see the Tigers marching home from Fayetteville with a win. The hogs should prevail by at least 10 points.
